3 Things I Wish I Knew Years Ago

Before I start mumbling on the title subject I want to tell you, the ones who stood in lines in front of the Embassies yesterday just to get your chance to vote, that I am humbled by your determination and acts and that you have our immense gratitude.

Seeing you on tv last night struck a cord in many of us, still living in this country. You could have just played ignorant towards a country that, in many cases, forced you to leave. Instead you got up and fought (went and tried to vote that is – I like dramatic tones).

Your gesture was valued more than you could think. Thank you.

Now, what I wish I knew a few years ago:

 

  • that responsibility is a powerful gesture and a serious thing. And that the lack of it has serious consequences    
  • that white leather skirts make me look fat and poofy – you never told me, btw…
  • that sometimes, no matter what you do, you`ll just be the big, bad bitch

 

Ok, I have more than 3 things I wish I knew, yes, I was pretty stupid innocent

 

  • I wish I knew how to appreciate spending time with myself and capitalize it better
  • I wish I knew that relaxation is the key to productive working and that relaxation has nothing to do with expensive treatments and spas – I was invited to test the new Schlurf – Organic teas from Click n Drink so I took a whole afternoon to myself and got ready with hot water for a dozen teas – yes I like to hydrate intensely, it`s healthy and I`m old, leave me be – my favorites are Schlurf Herb tea, Schlurf Fruit Organic tea and my absolute favorite, Schlurf Rooibos  – That, my darlings, proved to be a pretty cozy and relaxing activity. And it happened at home. Yeah, I wish I had discovered sooner that well-being is just a cup of tea away
  • I wish I knew that I`ll soon grow up and that peace of mind comes from life experience. And that it will come only with age
  • I wish I knew that that expensive bag for which I saved money two months will validate me in the eyes of shallow people but not in my own eyes. I wish I knew that there will come a time when I`ll be so powerful that I will not care about the validation of others

 

 

And I wish I knew about Click n Drink earlier – I would have tasted many more delicious drinks that would have surely enriched my moments. It`s the little things ladies, always search and trust the little things. They`ll help you grow into an unstoppable comet.
